BXBX NOVEL Chapter 48 - 48: The Void Realm
The strange crystal reflected the images it recorded in the surrounding space.
The exact time could no longer be verified, but it seemed to have come from an extremely long time ago.
The world in the image was somewhat similar to the scene in the ruins, but there were also slight differences.
A huge mass that was similar to but different from the nebula was still in that space. Under the different laws of reality, it did not gather into a star. Instead, it was still floating, appearing extremely free.
Radioactive psionic energy filled the entire background, and it was impossible to determine how much it was in total. However, if it could be used in the real universe, it would definitely be an incredible resource.
In a situation where no one disturbed it, it had always been very quiet. If one stayed there, one might be able to continue until the end of the universe.
Looking at that strange space, Li Wenyuan understood that it was likely the place the idealistic civilization had been searching for.
The scene flickered, and the calm scene suddenly became a stormy sea. The dreamy colors were completely destroyed by the sense of doomsday-like destruction.
Countless shadows were fighting in this space. The acts of moving mountains and overturning seas in novels were everywhere here. The spiritual energy in the entire space had become a powerful weapon under exquisite use. Even the fusion reaction was slightly inferior compared to it.
However, these shadows were not humans. They existed between the real and the virtual. Their entire bodies were filled with a high concentration of psionic power, and the parts that represented their physical bodies were pitifully few. One could only judge the difference between them and humans from their strange body structure.
These shadows came from the same species, and they seemed to be arguing about something. They were clearly divided into two factions and gradually evolved into a war that affected the entire race.
The entire space had become dangerous because of the war, and some terrifying existences were born or awakened in this process.
No one knew how long the war lasted. The weaker side eventually chose to sacrifice all the remaining clansmen of their faction and concentrate the essence of their psionic power on the last person, who would end the war.
The result of the war was that the last man killed all the clansmen, leaving him alone in this chaotic and dangerous space.
In this long picture, the scene related to humans appeared at the last moment.
A very obvious human figure came here and looked around curiously, as if it was his first time here. He met the eyes of the figure who had killed all the other clansmen.
The recording of the scene ended here, but the recording of words had not stopped.
The words that looked like an introduction appeared on the frozen screen, and Li Wenyuan was very sure that they were in human language.
[ 12000 years of the Ascension Era ]
[ We are trying to build a faster-than-light project that connects all the galaxies in the Milky Way. We hope that future civilizations will no longer be shackled by the shackles of light speed. ]
[ In the process, we discovered another highly developed civilization. ]
[ This makes us very excited. Compared to those primitive animals that can’t talk, communication between civilizations is clearly more meaningful. ]
[ But it is a pity that all of this civilization entered an unknown space through a method we never knew. ]
[ Through the documents they left behind, we learned that this civilization called themselves the Czeros, and the mysterious space they went to was called the void realm. ]
[ After a period of research, we found that the void realm they went to was the place that gave us a lot of help in the beginning. ]
[ After that, we used their technology to find a stable way to enter the void realm. We also chose the most suitable scientist and made him our diplomatic Ambassador to the Czeros. ]
[ The result was unfortunate. The Czeros had a civil war for unknown reasons, and in the end, only one living person was left. ]
[ Although we’re of different races, the only remaining Czero is also happy for our arrival. It’s obvious that he doesn’t think the universe is as lonely as he thinks. ]
[ He didn’t want to talk about their past. He only warned us not to come to this place again. ]
[ After giving us many suggestions, he refused our invitation to join us and chose to commit suicide. ]
[ In his words, he was remorseful for the actions of his own people and hoped that future civilizations would not follow in their footsteps. ]
[ We feel deeply sorry for that, but through the psionic crystal left in the void realm, we still know everything that happened to the Czeros. ]
[ At the cost of their entire race, they prevented a crisis that would destroy the galaxy ]
[ In memory of the last Czero clansman, we built a tomb in the void realm to bury his body. ]
[ But the void realm has also become more and more dangerous because of their actions. Certain existences that could threaten the Milky Way have also awakened in this process. ]
[ Now, the entire void realm is filled with their remains. Those are probably their ashes after their sacrifice, which possess powerful psionic power. ]
[ After our discussion, we decided to seal off the void realm. [ It’s not only to prevent others from repeating the same mistakes but also because we’ve realized that the gifts we’ve received might have been marked with a price. ]
[ However, if we do not go through the void realm, our galactic project to connect the entire galaxy will come to a standstill, and future civilizations may never see each other again. ]
[ In the end, we sealed off most of the paths to the virtual realm, leaving only a small gap to help us travel at faster-than-light speed. ]
[ At the same time, we also converted most of the Czero people’s ashes into gas. This way, even if someone obtains the gas, the psionic power contained in it will be greatly reduced. ]
[ After that, we tried to delay a certain deadline, hoping to complete our galaxy project before the time was up and find a way to continue. ]
The amount of information contained in the words was huge, and it also shocked Li Wenyuan.
It took him some time to clear his mind and add more information to the database about humans.
“Humans did exist a long time ago. At that time, it was difficult to even achieve faster-than-light navigation. For this reason, humans were carrying out a huge project to solve the shackles of light speed…
“The Czeros and humans were basically from the same era. Their encounter was also very short, but they successfully left behind an ancient story.
“There are a lot of vague things… Time limit? A gift? Could the humans of that era really defeat them?”
“There is also the void realm… This should be the special space that the idealistic civilization has been looking for. In the end, it was closed down by the humans…”
“The dangers of the void realm? Was he referring to those things that were born from the void realm? Are they living creatures? Civilizations? Or something else?
“And the Czero gas is the product of the Czero clan’s ashes… It’s a little scary to think about it.”
As he was thinking, he suddenly remembered that the remains of the last Czero should be buried in this pyramid.
However, after looking around, he didn’t see anything else other than the spirit crystal.
“Who took his body?”
In his impression, this Czero person, who had stored the power of all his people, should have a powerful psionic power, and the corpse he left behind was probably not to be underestimated.
Thus, Li Wenyuan thought of the Watcher, the lost empire that had always regarded this place as a Holy Land.
“It can’t be…” As if in response to his guess, all the civilizations in the entire galaxy detected extremely abnormal fluctuations at the same time, as if a certain space had been opened.
There were two sources of the fluctuations. One was within the Watcher’s territory, and the other was the planet where the Duncan Race held the Great Awakening movement..
